Honestly thank God.
I was really worried about how this was only going to drag down Honda.
I used to love Nissan. They made several of my dream cars.
Unfortunately it’s been quite some time since they made anything very good imo.
Currently have a reputation of meh reliability and meh driving experience.
They don’t offer anything to entice someone away from Toyota or Honda.
I hope Nissan can come back but idk how they do that without a serious overhaul of their whole business from the ground up.
Honda could have put honda engines in them and let Nissan just do their own styling.
You don’t need to merge with Nissan to do that if you’re Honda. Just buy out their design team. Much cheaper lol.
Edit: spelling
Honda needs decent trucks. Nissan can make a decent truck.
Nissan needs decent CVT transmissions. Honda can make decent CVTs.
As an outside observer, I figured just those 2 things would make it worth it.
My little brother said the same thing. I think you’re both right. Clearly that wasn’t enough to push the deal through though.
